AC Voltage Switch
The unit is set at the factory for 115V U.S. operation; simply connect the
included IEC power cord to your wall outlet. For 230V operation, move the
voltage selector switch to the 230V position. When operating at 230V the
internal fuse located in the IEC socket should also be changed. In most 230V
applications a separate power cord will be required and is not included.
IEC Power Connector
The unit comes with an IEC jack that permits removal of the AC power cord.
This allows the flexibility of changing the power cord for different countries.
The IEC socket also houses the main fuse holder. Plug the power cord
supplied with the amplifier into the amplifier and a wall outlet or appropriate
surge protector.
CAUTION: DO NO T plug the amplifier ’s power cord into a switched outlet,
such as what is provided on some Surround Receivers. If you wish to have
the amplifier tu rn on when the Receiver is powered up, use one of the power
modes, such as Trigger or Auto.

A Note On Distortion
Digital amplifiers distort differently than conventional Class A/B amplifiers.
If you hear a clicking or popping sound at high volume levels, this is an
indication the AD5012 is distorting. Pushing the amplifier harder than
the distortion level may trigger the amplifier’s protection circuitry which
will turn the output of the amplifier off and engage the red protection LED.
If this occurs, simply turn the channel level down until the distortion no
longer occurs.
